More information about the video content bellow:
1. Anguilla was colonized by British settlers from St. Christopher (St. Kitts) in 1650 and has been a British territory since that time. It is likely that some of these early Europeans brought enslaved Africans with them. Most people who live in Anguilla are the black people. It is about 90.08 percent from the whole population. Hey are the descendants of the African transported slaves.
2. In 1882, Anguilla was united with St. Christopher and Nevis as a single British dependent colony. The inhabitants resisted the alliance with several protests and attempts to separate from the association with St. Christopher. Results were finally achieved in 1967 when the Anguillans ejected the St. Christopher policemen and declared the country's independence, refusing to further recognize the authority of the state government of St. Christopher. After two years of negotiations, British troops were sent in to establish control of the island. In 1980, the country was officially separated from Nevis and St. Christopher and placed under direct British rule; in 1982 a new Anguillan constitution was ratified.
3. Though not the most accessible Caribbean island, that is precisely why this British Overseas Territory is so appealing. There are other reasons too, of course. Anguilla also lays claim to some of the finest beaches in the region, as well as some of the most luxurious hotels. It’s not exactly the cheapest place, that’s for sure. The island’s true riches though lie below the waves, where you find spectacular coral reef formations and a staggering diversity of marine life.
4. Anguilla’s capital is The Valley. There, all government offices and banks (main branches) are situated. It is also located almost exactly in the middle of the island.
5. Favourable tax rates have earned Anguilla a reputation as a place to hide away the dollars. Anguilla's thin arid soil being largely unsuitable for agriculture, the island has few land-based natural resources. Its main industries are thus tourism, offshore incorporation and management, offshore banking. Anguilla has become a popular tax haven, having no capital gains, estate, profit or other forms of direct taxation on either individuals or corporations. In April 2011, faced with a mounting deficit, it introduced a 3% "Interim Stabilisation Levy", Anguilla's first form of income tax.
6. Hot throughout the year, the islands are tempered by trade winds in local areas. The average rainfall for the year is 89 cm, but be aware that the hurricane season is from July to November.
7. Boat racing has deep roots in Anguillian culture and is one of the defining characteristics of the island. It’s the national sport. There are regular sailing regattas on national holidays, such as Carnival, which are contested by locally built and designed boats. These boats have names and have sponsors that print their logo on their sails.

Anguilla

Anguilla (/æŋˈɡwɪlə/ang-GWIL-ə) is a British overseas territory in the Caribbean. It is one of the most northerly of the Leeward Islands in the Lesser Antilles, lying east of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands and directly north of Saint Martin. The territory consists of the main island of Anguilla, approximately 16 miles (26km) long by 3 miles (5km) wide at its widest point, together with a number of much smaller islands and cays with no permanent population. The island's capital is The Valley. The total land area of the territory is 35 square miles (90km2), with a population of approximately 13,500 (2006 estimate).

Anguilla has become a popular tax haven, having no capital gains, estate, profit or other forms of direct taxation on either individuals or corporations. In April 2011, faced with a mounting deficit, it introduced a 3% "Interim Stabilisation Levy", Anguilla's first form of income tax.

Name

The name Anguilla is an anglicised or latinate form of earlier Spanishanguila, Frenchanguille, or Italiananguilla, all meaning "eel" in reference to the island's shape. For similar reasons, it was formerly known as Snake or Snake Island.

Anguillidae

The Anguillidae are a family of ray-finned fish that contains the freshwater eels. The nineteen species and six subspecies in this family are all in the genus Anguilla. They are elongated fish with snake-like bodies, their long dorsal, caudal and anal fins forming a continuous fringe. They are catadromous fish, spending their adult lives in fresh water but migrating to the ocean to spawn. Eels are an important food fish and some species are now farm-raised but not bred in captivity. Many populations in the wild are now threatened and Seafood Watch recommend consumers avoid eating anguillid eels.

Characteristics

Members of this family are catadromous, meaning they spend their lives in freshwaterrivers, lakes, or estuaries, and return to the ocean to spawn. The young eel larvae, called leptocephali, live only in the ocean and consume small particles called marine snow. They grow larger in size, and in their next growth stage, they are called glass eels. At this stage, they enter estuaries, and when they become pigmented, they are known as elvers. Elvers travel upstream in freshwater rivers, where they grow to adulthood. Some details of eel reproduction are as yet unknown, and the discovery of the spawning area of the American and European eels in the Sargasso Sea is one of the more famous anecdotes in the history of ichthyology. The spawning areas of some other anguillid eels, such as the Japanese eel, and the giant mottled eel, were also discovered recently in the western North Pacific Ocean.

Saint Christopher

Saint Christopher (Greek:Ἅγιος Χριστόφορος, Ágios Christóforos) is venerated by several Christian denominations as a martyr killed in the reign of the 3rd-century Roman Emperor Decius (reigned 249–251) or alternatively under the Roman Emperor Maximinus II Dacian (reigned 308–313). There appears to be confusion due to the similarity in names "Decius" and "Dacian". However his veneration only appears late in Christian tradition, and did not become widespread in the Western Church until the Late Middle Ages, although churches and monasteries were named after him by the 7th century.

That Christopher's name, meaning "Christ-bearer", foretells his adult life may give a clue that his story lacks a precise historical origin. He may be the same figure as Saint Menas. His most famous legend, which is mainly known from the West and may draw from Ancient Greek mythology, tells that he carried a child, who was unknown to him, across a river before the child revealed himself as Christ. Therefore, he is the patron saint of travelers, and small images of him are often worn around the neck, on a bracelet, carried in a pocket, or placed in vehicles by Christians.

St. Christopher (band)

St. Christopher are a Britishindie pop band formed in York in 1984, who released several records on Sarah Records in the late 1980s, and have continued to release records since.

History

St Christopher are mainly known among indiepop fans for their four singles and 10" mini-LP on Sarah Records, although they actually have a much longer history, both before and after their time on Sarah, producing a prolific quantity of recordings on a variety of labels, from the early 1980s to the present. .

Anguilla also lays claim to some of the finest beaches in the region, as well as some of the most luxurious hotels. It’s not exactly the cheapest place, that’s for sure. The island’s true riches though lie below the waves, where you find spectacular coral reef formations and a staggering diversity of marine life.
4. Anguilla’s capital is The Valley. There, all government offices and banks (main branches) are situated. It is also located almost exactly in the middle of the island.
5. Favourable tax rates have earned Anguilla a reputation as a place to hide away the dollars. Anguilla's thin arid soil being largely unsuitable for agriculture, the island has few land-based natural resources. Its main industries are thus tourism, offshore incorporation and management, offshore banking. Anguilla has become a popular tax haven, having no capital gains, estate, profit or other forms of direct taxation on either individuals or corporations. In April 2011, faced with a mounting deficit, it introduced a 3% "Interim Stabilisation Levy", Anguilla's first form of income tax.
6. Hot throughout the year, the islands are tempered by trade winds in local areas. The average rainfall for the year is 89 cm, but be aware that the hurricane season is from July to November.
7. Boat racing has deep roots in Anguillian culture and is one of the defining characteristics of the island. It’s the national sport. There are regular sailing regattas on national holidays, such as Carnival, which are contested by locally built and designed boats. These boats have names and have sponsors that print their logo on their sails.

Anguilla

Anguilla (/æŋˈɡwɪlə/ang-GWIL-ə) is a British overseas territory in the Caribbean. It is one of the most northerly of the Leeward Islands in the Lesser Antilles, lying east of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands and directly north of Saint Martin. The territory consists of the main island of Anguilla, approximately 16 miles (26km) long by 3 miles (5km) wide at its widest point, together with a number of much smaller islands and cays with no permanent population. The island's capital is The Valley. The total land area of the territory is 35 square miles (90km2), with a population of approximately 13,500 (2006 estimate).

Anguilla has become a popular tax haven, having no capital gains, estate, profit or other forms of direct taxation on either individuals or corporations. In April 2011, faced with a mounting deficit, it introduced a 3% "Interim Stabilisation Levy", Anguilla's first form of income tax.

Name

The name Anguilla is an anglicised or latinate form of earlier Spanishanguila, Frenchanguille, or Italiananguilla, all meaning "eel" in reference to the island's shape. For similar reasons, it was formerly known as Snake or Snake Island.
